Telomeres are parts of our chromosomes that affect how cells age. Like the plastic tips at the end of shoelaces, telomeres are caps at the end of each strand of DNA that protect it and allow cells to function and reproduce properly. Telomeres shorten each time a cell divides which, over time, leaves genetic DNA unprotected and causes cellular function to be compromised and ultimately leads to cell apoptosis (death) or senescence.

Every organ in the body (skin, liver, heart, etc.) is made up of cells, so telomeres are vital to good health. Slowing or stopping the shortening of telomeres can slow or stop cellular aging. Click here to learn more about Telomere Biology.

How do short telomeres impact your health?

The length of a person’s telomeres is a good indicator of their overall health status. Having short telomeres can accelerate the natural aging process on a cellular level. Some cells, like those found in the skin and immune system, are most affected by telomere shortening because they reproduce more often. Click here to learn more about telomeres and cellular aging.

For a body to stay healthy, it is important to maintain telomere length.

What is Telomerase Activation?

Telomerase is a naturally-occurring enzyme in the body that can slow, stop or perhaps even reverse age- and lifestyle-related telomere shortening. Telomerase is produced only inside functioning cells; it is not possible to take biologically active telomerase orally.

Activating the enzyme telomerase may be the key to helping cells live longer. Scientific research has shown activating telomerase in human cells slowed cell aging and allowed older cells to begin replicating again.

TA-65® is a patented, all natural, plant-based compound which is designed to help maintain or rebuild telomeres by activating telomerase. TA-65MD® nutritional supplements are the first in a line of products based on the TA-65® compound. TA-65MD® nutritional supplements are the first research-based products that specifically target Telomerase Activation. Click here to learn more about TA-65®.

The TA-65® compound is a Telomerase Activator that can lengthen telomeres. Click here for more information on our Clinical Research. Scientists have studied telomeres and telomerase extensively, and have published more than 10,000 articles on the topic to date. The role of telomeres in protecting our DNA was first observed in the 1930s, and the link between telomeres and cellular aging was made by scientists nearly 30 years ago. In 2009, the Nobel Prize for Physiology/Medicine was awarded to three scientists who discovered telomerase, the enzyme that TA-65® activates.

Scientists continue to study telomeres and the benefits of stopping or even reversing the shortening that happens as we age. Click here to learn more about Telomere Biology.
